On this episode episode Wolf (Steve Thomas) & Cub (Daniel Thomas) take a look at a new doco called 'Subject' which examines the impact of some well-known documentaries on the lives of their subjects with a focus on the ethics & responsibly inherent in documentary filmmaking. As tens of millions of people consume documentaries in an unprecedented "golden era," Subject urges audiences to consider the often profound impact on their participants The film club has been lucky enough to be joined by our first guest, Margie Ratliff who features in the doco. Margie kindly shares her experiences which have lead her to advocate on this vital topic of ethics in film. After our conversation, Steve also shares his approach to ethics as a filmmaker.
